Good afternoon all!
It was a good weekend. The Lions won, and I had a good race. Tonight I'm hopefully good for 6 or 7 easy miles. Supposed to do intervals, but.. um, no.
Anyone interested in the race report, such that it is... http://www.runningahead.com/groups/BF_and_Beyond/forum/9fda3a245b4d401f8b7c218140e6822e/
Congrats to all the other races this weekend!
SIAR - congrats on the win, and that's pretty cool about the elites.

SIAR - sweet!! I take it that post will be your RR?

SRD for me. Right leg was really feeling it this morning, and is still pretty sore this afternoon.
I've taken to applying the stick to the right calf. Seems that the rear inside muscle is somewhat knotted up, no doubt from the 15 miles on Saturday and the 3.5 "recovery" miles on Sunday.
I don't really feel a lump, but it hurts a great deal when I roll the stick over that part of the calf. And the ache felt more like a knee pain earlier today. Anyway, I hope to work it out a bit more and give it some good rest tonight so that I can do an easy 4 or 5 early tomorrow morning.
Of course, if it still hurts in the morning, I'll push the run off to Wednesday morning instead.
Have a good one, everyone!

Intervals done. Pretty happy, didn't think I would make it through. Now back to being lazy while I still can
Oh, when I went out to lunch I came back to this:
i really thought it was a spider. Almost died. Would you believe it's a crane fly?
Go figure
Trying to find some more hay to restock the barn
Of course, if it still hurts in the morning, I'll run it off, because that's what runners do.
FYP.
Supp SIAR! You mentioned you would be absent for awhile so no need to feel any kind of way but good about things.
LJ, the little boy in me would let that thing crawl on my forehead just to hear you shriek 'cuz that's what little boys do. And I am that!
Depends on the type of hurt, LRB.
It ached a little yesterday and I ran it off in a slow recovery run. Today, it really felt nasty when I walked down those stairs at the parking garage. It felt a little better in the afternoon when I walked to lunch and around the block.
I think it'll be OK. I'm going to sip a little beer, take an ibuprophen (just the little 200 mg store-bought ones, not the mega-doc 800s) and sleep on it for about 7 or 8 hours.

Good evening, DH and I did 3.5 this evening. Cuddled with our big kitty watching Top Gear. Not a bad evening.
10.66 easy on the hills. Steak dinner with the cat. Hoping to do a big LR tomorrow.
Huge congrats SIAR!!

Congrats, SIARn
what a day! At least I got my run in. 5 miles with hubby (new distance PR) plus 1
solo.
I still need to report to work tomorrow for a couple of hours and then will get back home unless the assholes get their shit together.
And I have a trial on Wednesday and opposing counsel
said he would not agree to move it in the hopes he wins because I will not be allowed to come in. I wish I was there to hear the judge rip him a new one.
